Logo for House Swap - Episode 7

House-swapping is the latest trend to hit the property world. With around ten thousand properties registered with swap websites, it's a brilliant way to avoid the dreaded property chain and make that move onwards. Presenter Kristian Digby meets people who want to swap their home permanently, then shows them three properties to find their perfect match. This time he meets Anthony and Emma Brewer, who want to swap their seaside cottage in Newquay, Cornwall for a house nearer their family in the Midlands. Jane Knight built her timber-frame house in Shropshire ten years ago but, now divorced, she is looking for a new home and a new life. Having swapped homes and lifestyles for a day it's up to House Swap property negotiator Sunita Shroff to thrash out a deal. After a day of tricky negotiations will they decide to swap homes for good?
